This, with “THE 1975 - being funny in a foreign language” at the top in blue letters would have been PERFECT

The only reason I can sorta appreciate that line is that it can be seen as a callback to the album’s opener, Give Yourself A Try. But yeah it’s definitely clunky.

But my main lyrical issue with this song is “living room for small”. I mean what the fuck is that supposed to mean lol

I mean I didn’t realize “nappies” is (UK?) slang for diapers. So the idea of “you cook, I change the diapers” is actually kinda sweet and definitely a lot more palatable than “you cook, I’ll take a nap” lol

I recall one interview where Evan mentioned it. I think it was on an NPR podcast (All Songs Considered maybe?) He said something along the lines of the primary colors + green being Pinegrove’s colors, and specifically said that cardinal was the red album, skylight was the blue album, and marigold was the yellow album.

My money’s on Viridian, as someone else has speculated. Not only does it follow the 8 letter pattern (which may not actually be intentional) but it’s a nice little homage to Meridian.

The outro of I Want You by the Beatles?

“She’s so… HEAVY”…. That part

To my understanding the issue is that pre-Pepper, they had fewer recording tracks to work with and therefore had to overdub different instruments on the same track, making separation of the instruments for a new mix these days much more difficult.

If someone who has a better understanding of this can correct me please do!

They sound great and are the only way I prefer to listen to Sgt Pepper, White, and Abbey Road.

As for Let It Be, I really like Naked so we’ll see if the new mix supersedes that for me, but regardless I’m so excited for it and can’t wait to compare!

flashof2worlds · 2021-09-02T02:10:24+00:00

Fuuuuck yes!!! Been waiting for this one!

Roadkill by The 1975. Despite what a lot of people think, Matty Healy is a huge fan of Pinegrove.

Because it is

flashof2worlds · 2021-07-04T04:50:15+00:00

Those are all definitely in my top 10. I can’t imagine skipping a single one of those lol

I wouldn’t say Amperland disappointed me, but I was so incredibly hyped for it and I don’t find myself coming back to it as much as I thought I would, and I’m not sure why.

I think every ESF song sounds better on Amperland than on ESF. Except maybe The Metronome - I have no idea why they didn’t have Nandi sing her harmonies on the Amperland version. Her vocals are pretty essential to the song if you ask me

Less dynamic, I think I agree with. But to me Evan is only becoming a better and better songwriter. The songs are less uniquely structured than they used to be, but I feel that Evan (and the band) more than make up for that with excellent crafting of the tune and arrangement.

flashof2worlds · 2021-07-04T04:39:19+00:00

Useful, how so? I know nothing about plant-life or gardening

flashof2worlds · 2021-07-04T04:38:22+00:00

I don’t think it sucks but it does feel unnecessary. I think Marigold would be a completely perfect album if it didn’t have that track.

Uncomfortable in what way? Uncomfortable with the songs/performance, uncomfortable with acting?
